3:13 am
whatever else they have in america this is exactly what russia can do as well but when it becomes a public campaign with congress saying it will draw up a list of individuals who have been involved in a crime what do you think it is if not an extra judicial execution of the convicts these individuals without any trial or prosecution but each so that no one talks about it so the magnitsky act only started in the u.s. moscow warns that we will view it as an unfriendly act and that will build we mass of response and russian lawmakers did pass a law a sort of the russian blacklist which also sanctions american citizens different categories of those connected to why lesions of human rights like connected to the go on to animal prison or to the violation of the rights of russian citizens and then fall that was of the general battle for all americans to adopt russian children due to the many cases of the violations of their rights
